"Dengwen Drum,"
The emperor's brows immediately furrowed, "It's really ringing,"
"It's knocking." Jin Ying wiped the sweat from his head - he galloped all the way over, and without resting for a moment, he went directly to the emperor to report, although it was indecent, but the sweat could not be held back anyway. "At that time, it was the supervisor of the Imperial Court who was on duty, and he didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he transferred the Luo family to Jinyiwei to take care of him and lived, and reported the matter to King Xiang."
According to the general procedure, after the Metropolitan Procuratorate takes over the case, it must be tried, and those who can beat the drum are generally big cases that gamble on their lives, and they often have to be tried together with the three halls of Dali Temple and the Criminal Department. There is nothing to do with Jinyiwei here, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will not take the initiative to deal with a secret agency like Jinyiwei.
However, this time the incident happened suddenly, and it was a major matter related to the crown prince and the imperial heir, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate definitely did not dare to ask rashly, Jinyiwei had a strong personal guard color of the emperor, and it could not be said that it was not a suitable choice to send people there. As for reporting directly to King Xiang, that is also a logical choice under judgment. Fortunately, whether it is the rotating supervision of the imperial history, or the left and right imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there is no implicit intention to make this matter bigger, otherwise, I am afraid that this matter will still have to be troubled.
"Has the news gotten out?" The emperor did not ask Jin Ying about the matter again, and it was obvious that King Xiang felt that he could not manage this matter, so he asked Jin Ying to report the matter quickly and ask for the emperor's opinion. "What did the Qingning Palace say?"
"After His Royal Highness King Xiang received the news, he went to Qingning Palace." Jin Ying didn't dare to be sloppy with the emperor, and said truthfully, "What does the Qingning Palace mean, the slave and maid don't know, but after His Royal Highness King Xiang came out, he ordered the slave and maid to come over and report the news." β
It seems that the Queen Mother doesn't want to worry about this matter either...... This is also normal, she was not on good terms with the concubine, who gave birth to her grandsons, and not all of them were her grandsons. Besides, how to deal with this matter depends on the emperor's mind, the queen mother just wants to break the sky, and it is useless if the emperor does not nod.
The emperor's brows furrowed a little tighter--he didn't take Concubine Luo's matter seriously at first, so he naturally didn't pay attention to Concubine Luo's details. But Sun Guifei herself is a talent who does practical things, how could she not even take care of Concubine Luo's family, so that people went to beat the Dengwen drum to complain?
Moreover, although Concubine Luo has won the status of a concubine, because there have been many things for a long time, she has not been canonized, and she plans to wait until the rookie girl enters the palace to do it together, it is said that her mother's family should not know that her daughter is proud in the palace. Not to mention the clear understanding that his daughter gave birth to a prince...... Behind this, if no one is fiddling, the emperor will not believe it first.
Came out to inspect the frontier, in addition to hiding from leisure, there is also a heavy intention, that is, the emperor also wants to see the situation on the border line of the country and the DPRK with his own eyes, since the departure, he is still quite satisfied, although there are some problems, but overall, the Mongols are still broken courage, those golden descendants who are not obedient, have fled far away into the Hanhai, the long-lost Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures have returned to their homeland, more than 50 years since the founding of the country, the Han people are also constantly moving north, filling this desolate land. The border guards, who knew him well, also arranged some small battles for the emperor to fightβalthough they knew that it was their sycophancy, the emperor was still quite useful. The man's family should rush to kill with a knife in the desert and the sea, and let the yellow sand and blood wash their spirits.
However, this good mood is now gone - he came out to experience this refreshing and heroic military camp life, and he became more and more tired of the undercurrent surging in the harem - he tossed for a few months, and then he could polish his temperament, and he thought that everything was coming to an end, but I didn't expect that there would be people who would continue to make trouble!
Moreover, it was clear that he was instructed by others to make things bigger...... It's all in front of the drums, this is what the world knows!
"News ......" Jin Ying obviously knew that this answer would not satisfy the emperor, and he whispered, "Naturally, the news spread, and after the Luo family beat the drum, they turned around and told a few guards about their grievances......"
Although the right gate of Chang'an, where Dengwengu is located, is also an important place for officials, and it is impossible to blatantly gather the crowd to watch the excitement, but there are ears and eyes in the nearby streets and alleys, and the Luo family has spoken, but I am afraid that now in the streets and alleys of the capital, there are already various versions of rumors, and the rules will not deviate from the central idea of 'Sun Guifei Yin snatching the son of man'.
The emperor scooped up a spoonful of water and slowly poured it on his left hand, Jin Ying hurriedly got up from the ground, "Let the slave maid serve grandpa......"
Qing Shui overflowed the lines in his hand, bringing out a faint and vivid blood color - in several small battles, the emperor also dressed neatly and led the army into battle, although there were always guards around him, but he still seized the opportunity and personally hammered two Tatar soldiers. Killing people inevitably sees blood, and the emperor's hands are also stained with blood flowing from the mace.
"Summoned Liu Siqing." The emperor's voice was colder than the water from the well that had just been hit. "Let's check whether the identity of this Luo family is true or false, I remember, this Luo family-"
"Concubine Luo entered the palace early," Jin Ying also did some homework, and said busily, "I entered the palace at the age of six, and I have been separated from my family for more than ten years, but I am afraid that I may not be able to remember the appearance of my family." β
The selection of palace maids is more casual than the draft, especially in the years when Luo entered the palace, Emperor Wen had a bad temper, and before the Yulu Rebellion, he had the habit of killing palace people at will, and there has always been a shortage of people in the palace. Or simply a crime did not enter the palace, so that it is possible for anyone who enters the palace at the age of four or five.
"Well, that's the time to look it up." The Emperor nodded, "Check again, who brought them in...... They can't be Beijingers, right? β
The draft has only been selected near the capital in the past few years, and it used to be in Nanjing, Luo Concubine's accent doesn't look like a northerner, she is completely in a southern tone, and she is also a very smart Jiangnan beauty.
Jin Ying wiped the cold sweat on her forehead again, "Yes, the slave will go down to write a letter." β
"Hmm." The emperor smiled, "Let Liu Siqing dig three feet into the ground and give me a detailed investigation." Within fifteen days, if the mastermind behind the scenes is not found, he, the admiral and eunuch of Dongchang, will not have to go down again. If you can't find out, you can go home and retire. β
Jin Ying is also an old eunuch who has served several emperors, when Emperor Wen was angry in the past, he also served on the side several times, Emperor Wen Rong Ma was like a fire all his life, once he was angry, he scolded loudly, the words were vulgar, and the person who heard it was like being in the army. Emperor Zhao has a supple personality, even if he is angry, he will only say a few words over and over again, 'It's too much', and he won't kill people if he is not pressed. And today's saints, although they are also laughing and scolding with the eunuchs, they seem to be smiling, but in fact, they are gentle and rarely angry, but once they are really emotional, it is not a few good words that can be ended. Although the words are elegant, but the tricky is better than the father, Emperor Wen's temper has come down, but today, this fire is dense and dense, although it seems to be soft, but it will never stop if it does not burn the culprit.
As soon as he heard the emperor's tone, Jin Ying knew that the emperor was really angry this time - beating the drum, not only wiped out Sun Guifei's face and stepped on the soles of her feet, but also offended the emperor's scales. Whoever made this move, it is certain that he did not take the emperor's feelings into account at all......
wants to use the people of the world, or the people of the capital, to kidnap the emperor's choice in the matter of the establishment. It's really a good idea, but people's emotions are always ever-changing, even Jin Ying didn't think about it, some time ago, he was so unbearable and didn't move the real fire, he went back and forth between several women, and the emperor who was rubbed back and forth and even seemed a little guilty was actually smoldering at this time.
"The slave dares to vouch for Liu Siqing," he hurriedly knelt down and assured loudly, "He will definitely be able to solve the case with his heart -- it's just that Nanjing and Beijing are far away after all, ......
"Twenty days, then." The Emperor twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Twenty days later, let him give me two satisfactory answers." If he can't, he won't have to live! β
Without waiting for Jin Ying to reply, he picked up a white cloth and wiped his hands, and said, "Also, the crown prince jade has never been able to report to the Zongren Mansion, and this matter is not good to delay any longer." Go back this time, you pass on my words to get this matter done, and on the jade, the biological mother will write Sun's name. β
Even if it's really the prince's biological mother's family, what if you provoke the emperor, your biological mother will make you a fake mother. In Jin Ying's heart, she couldn't help but sigh secretly: Concubine Luo had great hopes of being named on the jade, but it was a pity that the little did not hesitate to break with the concubine, and the glimmer of opportunity earned for Concubine Luo was now in vain because of the emperor's anger.
As for whether the drum beating is the real family of the Luo family, and whether there is the will of the Luo clan behind this matter, these reasons cannot be said to the emperor. If the emperor is willing to reason with you, this reason is useful, if the emperor is unwilling, what is the reason?
Jin Ying naturally wouldn't reason with the emperor, he lowered his head and respectfully agreed, "The slave obeys." β
The emperor glanced at Jin Ying with a smile, and suddenly changed his mind, he smiled, "You don't have to rush back, let a few people carry you slowly." Someone else has done the work of delivering the message, so you just wait to go back on time to check Liu Siqing's progress...... In the past few days, I have been on the road, and I am so tired that the lines on my face are a little deeper. If you go back so quickly, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold it, Jin Ying. β
Receiving the emperor's grace, Jin Ying was moved to tears, and whimpered, "Why did the emperor say this, the slave and maid are the emperor, and it is an honor to be full of liver and brain, and it is nothing to run around for a few days." β
The emperor couldn't help but laugh, and patted Jin Ying's shoulder a few more times with his hand, before he said, "You go down, there will naturally be an oracle and a token for you in a while." It's good to rest for a day, and then hit the road again tomorrow. β
After saying that, and a few words of encouragement, Jin Ying whimpered and kowtowed a few times, and was about to leave the house on his knees, and the emperor said again, "You come back." β
Jin Ying was helpless, so he had to grind his knees and walk back, the emperor pondered for a while, and then said in a low voice, "Tell Liu Siqing...... Check out the Hu family more! β
Here it comes! It's finally here!
Jin Ying was not surprised at all, only screamed in his heart, but his face was solemn, he nodded silently, and seeing that the emperor had no other orders, he got up from the ground, bent down and withdrew from the room-his knees were too painful to grind.
The social tears dried faster, and the tears were still rolling in the house just now, and after a while, only tears were left on the face. Jin Ying lowered her head and pondered as she walked, thinking for a long time, before she shook her head with emotion and sighed lowly.
"Fate......"
The old eunuch's low and old sigh, as if carrying a great weight, fell straight to the ground, rolled on the ground, and was blown into the yellow sand by the strong wind on the side.

Even the emperor who was far away in the border had received news from the Luo family, and the harem was only a mile or two away from the right gate of Chang'an, so what news could not be transmitted? Xu Xun's Yong'an Palace got the news the next day, Wang Jin, the little eunuch Zhong'er, and the female history of the Shang Sleep Bureau, who has always been friendly with Mama Zhao, all brought different versions of the story to Yong'an Palace.
But compared with the excitement of other people's homes, what several grandmothers are more concerned about is the piece of paper on the Wenhua Hall case - Wang Jin has been in charge of the ceremonial supervisor for a while, and he is so busy β‘that he has no skills, he knows the details, and he thinks that it is not a big deal, so he did not assign an apprentice to send a letter to Yong'an Palace, but when the 'husband and wife' got together, he told Yu Tingyi's letter to his vegetable household.
"I haven't even met with you...... "Of course, everyone is very indignant at Tingyi's insistence, "Besides, how many years ago did you open the Qinglou......
"It was a few years ago." Xu Xun cried when he first found out, but he was very calm at this time. "After all, it's not decent, and I can't complain about what others say. However, I have never heard of this rampant thing in the countryside and illegal construction, and if it is true, I would like to thank Lord Yu for pointing out the fact that the clansmen are disobedient to discipline. β
"That being said." Mama Qian was worried about another point, "But Lord Yu is so dignified, how can he make a break at this juncture?" 'M afraid...... It is someone in the DPRK who sincerely wants to oppose you. β
"Do it right, do it right." Xu Xun was still unmoved, "If he likes to do it, he will do it well, can he still do it in Yong'an Palace to kill me?" β
After saying that, he waved his hand, "You don't need to ask or worry about this matter, you can just take care of your own life." The eldest brother has his own sense of proportion, does not do bad things, and is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. We have done what we should do ourselves, and how others are embarrassed is their business. β
When the master is so confident, it is difficult to say anything as a subordinate - however, it is also the proper meaning of the question to be considered and nervous by the master. Seeing that Concubine Huangzhuang looked indifferent, Mama Qian adjusted her mentality, and no longer worried about the ethereal opponent in the court, but said, "Niangniang has always been diligent in restraining the clansmen, and this slave and maid know it in their hearts. Now that there is this letter, should people go back to Nanjing to check it? β
She immediately thought of Liu Zhien, who was in Nanjing, "Speaking of which, that-"
As soon as the words came out, Mama Zhao's face changed slightly, and she glanced at Mama Qian, Mama Qian stumbled, but the words had already come out, so she had to go down, "Isn't Liu Zhien in Nanjing......
Concubine Huangzhuang waved her hand, "Let's wait for the eldest brother to come back, otherwise, wouldn't it be limited to Wang Jin's passivity?" Let's talk ...... again."
She suddenly sighed a little melancholy, "Liu Zhien has done enough for Yong'an Palace, and we don't know what to do if we ask for it here." β
I don't know what is wrong with this, Liu Zhien is in Nanjing, although it is also a good place, but it is a place for the elderly, saying that it is moving the capital, moving the capital, and there has been no movement for three years, and it is clear that he does not want to move back. He is a little more Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, and it is a good time to make contributions, will he be willing to retire in Nanjing? Concubine Huangzhuang sent him away when he had something, it was his blessing, and it was also his duty to be loyal......
Mama Qian was puzzled, but of course she didn't talk back, so the group ended the topic and began to gossip about the recent 'Luo's shouting injustice' incident.
Speaking of which, in fact, the facts are also very simple, the news given by Wang Jin is the most straightforward, and it should be the closest to the truth - anyway, it is a family of four, an old couple, and a young couple, who came over and beat the drum. Claiming to be the parents, brother and sister-in-law of the palace maid Luo, Luo has been in the palace for many years, has been serving by Sun Guifei's mother's side, and even gave birth to the current crown prince for Niangniang. But Luo himself, after the crown prince landed, only sent some gold and silver to the family, and explained the reason, that is, there was no more news, and the family now wants to see their daughter the most, and they also hope to let the crown prince understand his origin.
Then, they were taken to the guard of the Jinyi Guard to take care of them. The commander of Jinyiwei did not dare to act rashly, I heard that the master of ceremonies, Dongchang and even the Metropolitan Procuratorate were invited to send people to station, not to let them contact the Luo family, but to be afraid that something would happen to the family under the care of Jinyiwei, and the emperor wanted to ask, but Jinyiwei couldn't tell.
"I heard that it was King Xiang who ordered Jinyi Wei to keep this family." Mama Sun said while embroidering, "Otherwise, the Jinyi Wei Yamen would not have picked up this hot charcoal ball." β
"What do I say......" Xu Xun relieved his doubts a little, "How did this Metropolitan Procuratorate get involved with Jinyiwei...... Are you sure that this Luo family is really Luo Concubine's relatives? β
"I don't know." Mama Zhao also has some information, "Anyway, Concubine Luo has never shown her face in front of people, and now that this has happened, she will not show up." No one asks even if they ask, but, according to common sense, if Sun Niangniang is willing to let Luo Guiren go home to send gold and silver, she will generally send someone to take care of Luo Guiren's family. It was even said that when Luo Guiren was still pregnant with a child, it was time to do this. β
Even a few grandmothers' families are now in the care of the Xu family, Sun Guifei is not so good at this IQ, Xu Xun snorted, and when he saw that they were all cronies, he smiled and said, "I think, I am afraid that this matter has nothing to do with Qingning Palace." β
In the hearts of several grandmothers, I am afraid that they have not doubted the queen mother, but Mama Qian has some other ideas. "There are two masters living in Qingning Palace now, I don't know which one Niangniang is talking about?"
"I don't know about that." Xu Xun shook his head. "I have to say it...... I would say that it is Sister Hu, although this move is ruthless, but it is also because it is too ruthless, not like the handwriting of the Queen Mother. β
"It's ruthless, overnight, all the opera troupes in the market sang "Tanuki for the Prince". Mama Zhao provided the news, "It is said that even the storyteller in the teahouse told this story, and King Xiang didn't say anything...... Concubine Sun Guifei hasn't been out of the palace for a few days. β
This trick is a bit of a scoundrel, but it's also particularly effective because it directly captures human weaknesses. Regardless of the emperor's reaction, Sun Guifei's reputation has completely stinked, which is not at all the same level as the repercussions caused by Xu Xun's twists. -- The little bit of about the Xu family may have been circulating in the circle of bureaucratic friends who have handled it so far, and it has not yet become gossip in the streets and alleys. And Sun Guifei's incident seems to be not only going to become a sex scandal in the capital, but in a few months, there will be various versions of the adulterous concubine's seizure of the child all over the country.
If the Queen Mother did it, then the Queen Mother would be a little too crazy...... Because along with this rumor, he was trampled on the ground, and there was also the dignity of the heavenly family. No matter how angry the Queen Mother is, Sun Guifei shouldn't be able to do it to this extent, right?
Xu Xun thought about replacing himself as Sun Guifei, and he was also a little sorry for her: the emperor was not at home, if the queen mother intervened in it to make trouble, maybe she really didn't have the face to live......
"Yesterday, when Xiao Nazi went to pass the meal," Hua'er said, "Yujian Xiaolinzi, the waiter of Qingning Palace who used to settle accounts with the imperial dining room and receive fresh vegetables. β
"-Xiao Linzi's face is very ugly, "Hua'er is obviously also gossiping," Xiao Nazi said, Xiao Linzi and he are the same generation, the two of them kissed, he asked Xiao Linzi what was going on, and Xiao Linzi complained to him in private, saying that after the incident came out from Dengwen Drum, Aunt Qiao's face was not better, and even the Queen Mother's face was gloomy and terrible, and the two concubines did not dare to come to the Queen Mother to gossip and talk these days. The people under them are also to blame at every turn, and they have suffered a lot. β
Xiao Linzi can enter the imperial dining room to pass the meal, in fact, he also has a certain status, he is not the kind of miscellaneous eunuch, and he can still see the true face of the queen mother. His complaint should not be false, it seems that this matter really has nothing to do with the Queen Mother.
knows the reason very well, it must have a certain status in the palace, and it doesn't care about the consequences at all...... Could it be that it was really done by the Jingci Immortal Master?
Xu Xun's eyebrows furrowed tightly, she stood up, sat down again, and groaned for a while, but finally sighed, "That's it, just go if you want, why bother wronging yourself." β
Then he stood up and said, "Let's go, go to the Qingning Palace to ask the Queen Mother to go." β
The author has something to say: Except for the immortals, everyone is really in trouble now, haha......
My cat is now improving, usually enjoying the warmth of the electric heater on the couch outside, and after dinner at 10 p.m., he opens the door and comes in (it opens my door), walks straight to me, jumps on his knees and sleeps without saying a word. If I lock the door to stop it, it will still call the door......
Don't think it loves me, it loves my swivel chair, because it sleeps there at night, so it just generously shares the swivel chair with me, and as soon as I walk away it will occupy the swivel chair and refuse to return it......
